Trump administration permits Anthropic's Mythos 5 for over 100 U.S. agencies and firms
The Commerce Department has authorized Anthropic to provide its Mythos 5 AI model to more than 100 U.S. government agencies and private companies, extending access to non-American employees of those organizations.
The U.S. Commerce Department announced that Anthropic's Mythos 5 model can be used by more than 100 designated government agencies and private companies, and that non-American staff at those entities will also be allowed access. The decision, conveyed in a letter from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to Anthropic’s chief compute officer Tom Brown, said the administration had determined that "appropriate safeguards are in place to permit certain trusted partners to access the Claude Mythos 5 Model." The directive does not mention the related Fable 5 model, which was released shortly before a recent ban that removed both models from the market after security researchers reported that their guardrails could be bypassed. Anthropic did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
